Summary

  • Fujitsu Siemens Amilo Pi 2515 mainboard
  • 2Gb RAM
  • Hand-patched power button on micro-fine wires

Pong

On boot, automatically logs in user 'frontend' and runs a mini pong game built in python and blessings. Will attempt to display time, but throws an error every now and then due to rounding and then cycles around resetting itself.

Touchscreen

Currenty wired to an eGalax Touchscreen (USB ID 0eef:0001). Making it work properly under Linux requires running a daemon process and compiling a patched kernel as per their website. This currently eludes me.

MPD

This board runs a debian-hosted MPD and is connected to the Nexia PM which in turn is hooked up to the amplifier and speakers.


Festival

Starting

In order to allow the !speak function of Nurdbot (which lives on tankstation) to connect to this machine, festival can be started in server mode as user nurdbot:

./start_festival.sh &

It should start after a reboot since there's a line in /etc/rc.local.

Access control

Basic ACL is managed in /etc/festival.scm.

Volume

Volume of mpd can be set independently of system volume (using NURDbot or mpd client). Volume of festival is the same as system volume and can be set using alsamixer. At the moment system volume is 100%.
